New H1N1 Update from the T/E School District
On Tuesday, October 27th, the T/E School District posted a new H1N1 update on the TESD web site:
 
Parents are encouraged to contact their family physicians and/or the Chester County Department of Health for ongoing updates about the availability of H1N1 vaccine. The vaccine will not be distributed to students through the T/E School District. Important healthcare decisions such as the administration to children of a new vaccine are best handled by individual families in conjunction with primary health care providers and medical professionals.

ARCH Community Forum for Parents of Teens
 
Wednesday, November 4th
7PM - 8:30PM
Tredyffrin Library
 
ARCH invites parents of teens to participate in a Community Forum. The conversation will focus on navigating situations that parents encounter regarding their teen's social life. This is an opportunity for parents to listen, participate and learn strategies to handle scenarios that arise when teenagers make their own weekend or weeknight plans.

ARCH hopes this evening will provide parents with information to help their children make healthy choices and stay alcohol and drug free.

Flu Update from Chester County Health Department
The Chester County Health Department wants to remind residents to get their seasonal flu shots now. Contact your primary care provider or check the Health Department's website for information on scheduling an appointment at our clinic. Also, for other locations in the area that are offering seasonal flu shots, check the American Lung Association website. Seasonal flu is very contagious.
 
The H1N1 flu vaccine is expected to arrive in Chester County very soon. Please contact your family physician or check the Chester County Health Department website often for updated information on vaccine availability. The H1N1 vaccine will not protect you from seasonal flu, so be sure to get your regular, seasonal flu shot. In the meantime, please practice good hygiene and social distancing to protect yourself and your family as much as possible from H1N1 and other viruses.

2010-2011 School Calendar
The Board Education Committee reviewed several draft calendars for next year at its September and October meetings. Some of these drafts included starting school after Labor Day while others included a start date prior to the holiday. Since Labor Day is late again with the holiday falling on September 6, 2010, the Committee recommended a calendar for the 2010-11 school year with school beginning for students on September 1, 2010. This calendar configuration provides a schedule that allows school to end on a reasonable date in June 2011 and also incorporates the holidays of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and President's Day.
 
The Education Committee reviews the school calendar annually and will continue to consider all public comments when making decisions regarding future calendars.
Curriculum Study: Looking Ahead
The T/E School District is in the process of examining its curricular program in order to consider program changes to meet the strategic planning goal of preparing students with the skills and knowledge to be leaders and contributors in the 21st century. These considerations are the result of three factors: strategic planning initiatives, new electronic learning environments and state testing requirements for student proficiency.
